This meeting will bring together experts from Analytical and Technology Sciences, Clinical Chemists and Medical Research to present their data and exchange information on topics related to Biomarker Validation using mass spectrometry and other techniques. An attendance of about 200 participants is expected. As this conference is linked to an EU Cost action about biomarker validation (CliniMARK; CA16113) we expect also attendance from members of 25 European countries linked to this COST initiative. Just to mention a few key note speakers that have accepted the invitation to address the audience: Prof Mathias Mann, Max Planck Institute Martinsried/ Munich, Prof Arfan Ikram (Alzheimer’s disease, Erasmus MC), Prof. Guy Brussele (COPD, Ghent University) and Prof. Gyorgy Marco-Varga (University of Lund).​
